stumbled onto this gem by accident while spending a few days on vacation.. besides the basement feel going down flights of stairs its a wide open place with a long and winding bar..I can see where this could be a disadvantage but our bartender stayed to near us the whole time.. The choices were so many it actually made it hard to choose.. We stayed late and got to experience the drop in food and beer prices of a late night menu...overall if youre in town and have a few night, dont miss out on this place

I was a late arrival into Seattle, and after getting checked into my room around King Street at midnight, my list of places of a few pints were limited. Luckily, the Tap House Grill, located near the retail heart of the city, was open until 1am, even on a plain Wednesday night. You will find the entrance and the host's table with ease, but swirl down a flight of steps and then you can let your beer imagination start flowing.

The Tap House Grill is huge! It feels like a clean lounge with a very large, winding bar, tables on tables, and additional room which included pool tables. I imagine this place can crank people and money during major sporting events. Service could handle the pockets of people there during the late night, and the bartender did offer that I pick her brain for Northwest beer. Knowing very little about the Washington state scene, I fired several choices and hoped for the best.

There could be many firings of shots here, because there are taps and more taps. 160 taps, if you're looking for a rough number. On the menu, Washington state beers are given a special indication, and during happy hour, receive a discount. Variety is not a problem here, as beers from 21st Amendment, Ghostfish, MIkkeller, To Ol, Georgetown, Elysian, Rogue, Snoqualmie, Scuttlebutt, La Trappe, Petrus, Bellevue, and Firestone are among the representatives. It leans heavy on the West Coast, with a drizzle of Belgian mystique, plus a small rotating list.

The one negative is the questionable care of the beers. I do appreciate the usage of different glassware when the time calls for it, but my first two beers didn't taste right (or maybe they're rubbish in the first place, I don't know); astringent and faded hoppines,respectively. I'll choose more carefully next time. I will say that beer number three hit it right, so at least my boozing at Tap House Grill ended on a positive.

Typical sports bar, modern but no real distinct character to it. It's on the basement level so maybe would have stayed longer if it was raining out rather than being a beautiful sunny day. The private room in the back with pool tables looked cool but there was a loud group of suits doing shots of jager in there. Large selection with some rotating local brews, nothing super unique but a solid selection nonetheless. Fish tacos were good.

I visited the Tap House Grill for a beer after work yesterday. I've been here several times, and it's a convenient place with a great selection right in the middle of the downtown retail district.

The vibe of the place is very hotel-lounge; kind of a corporate attempt at trendy-but-warm. It doesn't bother me too much, and service was quick and friendly despite it being a relatively busy after-work hour.

160 taps means a huge selection. Most of the regular offerings are widely available, but it's nice to have them all in one place. 20 or so rotating taps have a pretty good selection of rare and interesting stuff, though. My only real issue is that it is a bit overpriced, though this may be due to location. $6.50 for a pint of non-rare or special brew is a bit steep, even for this neighborhood.

It's like a local version of Yard House with a large selection and a large space. The difference is that there are pool tables available for hourly rates. I didn't play but asked about them. And I agree with others that the service can be slow when crowded since there was only 1 bartender for both a large bar and dining room service. Only had the soup which was quite good. Bottom line - I wouldn't hesitate to go back next time I'm in Seattle.

Visited Seattle in 2010 and stopped here several times, it was across the street from my hotel. I remember a huge selection of beer, at the time I was a newb, but there was lots of Pacific NW beer represented. You can build your own flights, which was cool. I sampled several beers in my trips. The place is very large and the food is good from what I can remember. It is in a great location, so if you are close I would stop by
